Former Senator John Edwards: White House
built 140 days ago
Edwards still has a ways to go. In the midst of a short theme sequence that begins each Webisode, the camera lingers over the former senator’s behind as he tucks a starched white shirt into his pants. Still, Hunter, now under contract with Edwards’s organization, says she sees the untucked John Edwards coming more and more to the fore. “When he gets really tired, he’ll jump back into that automatic pilot thing,” she says. “But he’s aware of it, he doesn’t want it to happen.”
Due to his stature as a former senator and vice-presidential candidate, Senator Edwards’s failure to clearly reject an aggressive posture toward Iran has an impact. It tends to undermine growing efforts in Congress to stop the White House from attacking Iran.
The son of a former U.S. senator, Dodd was elected to the House of Representatives in 1974, and served three terms before his election to the Senate in 1980. He voted to authorize military action against Iraq in 2002, but has since become a vocal critic of President Bush's handling of the war.
